SUMMARY:Answer the Call for the Women's National Monument
DESCRIPTION:For too long\, the stories etched into the marble and bronze of our nation’s capital have been incomplete. Of the approximately 40 statues and memorials dotting the National Mall\, not one is dedicated to women’s history. That is about to change—and the Women’s Suffrage National Monument Foundation wants the artistic community to help write the narrative. \nIn a historic\, first-of-its-kind initiative\, the Foundation has launched “Monumental Ideas\,” a nationwide brainstorming session to set the vision for a new 2.5-acre landmark at Constitution Gardens. This isn’t a technical design competition or a request for blueprints (that stage will come later). Instead\, this is a call for creative spirit. Whether you are a professional sculptor\, a painter\, a photographer\, or a conceptual artist\, the Foundation is looking for the “soul” of this monument. They want to hear from people of all ages to help define what should be represented in this historic space. \nHow to Participate\nThe Foundation is looking for reflections on suffragist leaders\, milestones in history\, and even the inspiring women in your own life today. \n\nWhat to Submit: A photo or digital file of your creative work—drawings\, paintings\, sculptures\, photographs\, collages\, or poems—accompanied by a short description.\nThe Deadline: Submissions are being accepted through July 4\, 2026.\nWhere: Submissions can be made directly through the Foundation’s website.\n\nLet’s ensure that when future generations walk past the willow trees of Constitution Gardens\, they finally see the story of our “founding mothers” woven into the heart of American democracy.
